Johnny and Etta James toured together and developed their singling styles together. You can totally hear it in this one. Dude was as good a singer as a guitarist.
This was the very first song I heard by Johnnie G when I was 13 - been on Johnnie since, and that was a very long time ago. In this song - the guitar riffs and the violins - along with the lyrics had me going. I'd never heard blues riffs with strings - ain't that a ...?
Johnny played some dynamite blues when he was back in Texas. I really regret that I never got to see him live. All those great Texas bluesmen from the 50s and early 60s are gone.ZZhill,Albert Collins, Johnny Copeland.
You can really see where Johnny Winter got his early inspiration from. Especially when JGW yells at 1.06 does he sound like Winter did back in 1963. JGW was just about 30 yrs ahead of time.
Johnny Guitar Watson started recording in the mid 50s You should hear his tracks back then.You got to realize he is from Houston Tx,his peers coming up was Albert Collins,Johnny Copeland,he left Tx and headed to La. that stuff from the 70]s was just him coming back out.This guy was a straight up Superstar who never got his due
